Yes, this cake has a secret ingredient! Don't be scared! It won't affect the flavor, just the texture. This recipe doesn't require eggs, oil, or butter because mayonnaise takes their place. It's your turn to surprise your guests with the secret ingredient!

Ingredients

For the cake:

• 2.5 cups flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1.75 cups mayonnaise (mustard-free)
• 1.2 cups coffee (or 1.2 cups water)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 3.5 oz chocolate chips

For the ganache:

• 3.5 oz dark chocolate
• 1/3 cup cream

Materials

• Rectangular cake mold

Preparation

• In a bowl, mix all the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and cocoa powder.
• In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: mayonnaise, coffee, and vanilla extract.
  
• Finally, gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet mixture in three additions until you achieve a homogeneous batter.
• Add the chocolate chips, mix well, and pour the batter into a greased rectangular mold. Bake for 55 minutes at 350°F (180°C). Check with a toothpick before removing. Once out, let the cake cool.

• Pour the ganache over the cake and enjoy!
